The acceleration due to gravity, g , is constant at sea level on the Earth's surface. However, the acceleration decreases as an

blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

g = g₀ [1- 2 h / Re + 3 (h / Re)²]

Explanation:

The law of universal gravitation is

F = G m Me / Re²

Where g is the universal gravitational constant, m and Me are the mass of the body and the Earth, respectively and R is the distance between them

F = G Me /Re² m

We call gravity acceleration a

g₀ = G Me / Re².

When the body is at a height h above the surface the distance is

R = Re + h

Therefore the attractive force is

F = G Me m / (Re + h)²

Let's take Re's common factor

F = G Me / Re² m / (1+ h / Re)²

As Re has a value of 6.37 10⁶ m and the height of the body in general is less than 10⁴ m, the h / Re term is very small, so we can perform a series expansion

(1+ h / Re)⁻² = 1 -2 h / Re + 6/2 (h / Re) 2 + ...

Let's replace

F = G Me /Re² m [1- 2 h / Re + 3 (h / Re)²]

F = g₀ m [1- 2 h / Re + 3 (h / Re)²]

If we call the force of attraction at height

m g =g₀ m [1- 2 h / Re + 3 (h / Re)²]

g = g₀ [1- 2 h / Re + 3 (h / Re)²]

Answer:

$x_2=1.60m$

Explanation:

From the Question We are told that

Initial Force $F_1=5800N$

Final Force $F_2=6500N$

Distance between the front and rear wheels \triangle x=3.20 m

Since

$\triangle x=3.20 m$

Therefore

$x_1+x_2=3.20$

$x_1=3.20-x_2$

Generally the equation for The center of mass is at x_2 is mathematically

given by

$x_2 =\frac{(F_1x_1+F_2x_2)}{(F_1+F_2)}$

$x_2=3.20F_1-\frac{x_2F_1+F_2x_2}{(F_1+F_2)}$

$2*F_1*x_2 =3.20F_1$

$x_2=1.60m$
